Almost Dead

Post Reply New Topic

I don't know how to explain this game well in any other way than example-giving.


Person 1: I run with scissors, fall, and accidentally stab myself...

Person 2: ...but they were safety scissors.
I walk into the freezer, the door closes, and I forget it's locked...

Person 1: ...but the power shuts off due to a storm, and the freezer instantly warms up. Someone comes and saves you.
I am walking across the street and I get hit by a car...

Person 2: ...but it was a toy car.
(etc.)

So on and so forth.
Basically, someone gives a scenario where someone would normally die, then the next poster comes up with a creative way to kind of "Save" that person.
It may seem a bit morbid, but it requires a lot of creativity and it can be humorous sometimes. I'm in no way meaning to make a "dark game."
Meh.
So, without further ado...

I accidentally choke on a gumball...

The gumball falls apart and you swallow it safely.

I fall off a cliff. . .

Ack, missed a post!

Fortunately, you fall into a garbage bin full of leftover foam from mattresses.

Okay, now that it's already come to a halt, I guess I have to...


I hit my head on a rock...

It was a fake rock made out of cardboard.

I burned my tongue on hot food. . .

Sorry! Ack, missed post again!

You have a glass of milk to cool the burn.

I slip in the shower and the shower curtain gets tangled around my neck, choking me...

The shower curtain had already broken off because you grabbed as you were falling and it quickly gets untangled.

I fell down a staircase. . .

This reminds of a funny kid's book I read in elementary school, called Fortunately. But anyway, without further ado,,,

You landed in a pile of feathers after falling down the steps unharmed.
I got attacked by a dragon with a machine gun...

The machine gun had no bullets.

I got attacked by a bear. . .

Chuck Norris shows up and kills the bear.

I got in a fight with Chuck Norris...

But it was really the Pillsbury Doughboy in a Chuck Norris suit, so you win easily.

I was stranded outside during an electrical storm, and was struck by lightning.

...but your clothing had the right combination of conductors and insulators to safely discharge the lightning into the ground.



I step off the curb to cross the street without seeing the bus hurtling in my direction...

You trip and land at such an angle that bus passes harmlessly over you, the wheels narrowly missing your fingers.

I become paralyzed and fall into a lake...

Your rescued from your drowning whereabouts, I find myself surrounded by poisonous snake as, one has bitten me.

The snake is only a rubber snake and is therefore harmless.

I fall through the roof of a building. . .
